Lets's calculate LCM of 447,8328
3 | 447, 8328 |
149, 2776 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 149 x 2776 = 1240872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/1240872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5420/447,5560/8328 is 20/1240872
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 447,8328 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(447,8328) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(447,8328) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(447,8328) = ( 447 × 8328 ) / 3
LCM(447,8328) = 3722616 / 3
LCM(447,8328) = 1240872
